Davidson's Bill Lets Americans Sue Foreign Censors In Federal Court

Davidson's Bill Lets Americans Sue Foreign Censors In Federal Court

Filed September 8, H.R.10309 also bars U.S. courts, agencies and extradition proceedings from enforcing foreign speech rulings on Americans.

  • Davidson calls the acronym HOMEFRONT, for Halting Overseas Mandates from Extraterritorially Reaching Onto National Territory.
  • The bill lets Americans sue foreign governments and regulators directly in U.S. federal court.
  • Davidson says foreign regulators use fines and legal threats to force American firms to censor.

Why it matters: A law written to stop foreign speech rulings from working here is proof they have been working here.
